Keeping it Safe

Frozen shrimp can also be used to prepare these appetizers. To thaw the shrimp, place the bag of frozen shrimp in the refrigerator and let stand until thawed. Or, place the sealed bag of shrimp in a bowl of cold water and let stand until thawed, changing the water every 10 minutes. Never thaw the shrimp on the countertop.

I, too, was horrified to realize that the crackers were soggy so quickly! Yes, the flavor was fine, but it's tough to get passed the cracker's mush to enjoy the shrimp. There are better recipes on this site that make great appetizers!

I make it all the time! It is usually the last dish I prepare so the crackers do not get soggy but it is always the first dish to go!!!

I made this recipe about two hours before using. I didn't realize the cracker would be completely soggy by then. How embarrassing when I realized that I had tried to serve this soggy mess to my guests! When the evening was over I immediately tossed the recipe in the trash, along with nearly all the leftover crackers, even though the taste was good when JUST MADE.

Big hit of the party. I mixed the cocktail sauce with the cream cheese. Worked wonderful. It's a keeper.

Made this for a dinner party 1/2 hour ahead. Used Ritz Top 'Ems crackers and shrimp from a shrimp ring and they held up for over an hour w/out getting soggy. They were not only beautiful but very tasty! Everyone seemed to love it! Would highly recommend this appetizer! I will definitely be making this again and AGAIN!
